White Sox confirm Griffey will start in CF regularly, with Konerko going to the bench.

Jesse Rogers on Score saying it looks like Griffey is playing CF and Kong is going to the bench.

QUOTE (north side chi sox fan @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 08:21 AM)
was that wtf targeted at a specific post or did you just lose it trying to figure out who will play where?

I'm in pacific time and just sat down at my computer. That's a general "WTF" for all of this.

QUOTE (LosMediasBlancas @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 10:23 AM)
Do we have definite details on the trade yet?

Griffey for.....?

 

Massett and Richar. Reds pay for KG contract.

Where is this from?

 

turn the score 670 on...in between commercials, there is occassionally some content.

A coworker of mine who broke this trade to me first is now also saying something about dealing Swisher back to the A's for Street. I don't know where he got that information, but is there any plausibility to that, even if it is pure speculation?

 

SFF

Seems like Griffey, 1/2 of his contract for this season ($2 million) and the cost of his $4 million buyout at the end of the season ($6 million total) for Nick Masset and Danny Richar.

:angry:

 

I'm wondering if they'll begin working Dye in at 1B slowly. They don't want Griffey in CF for the long-term.

 

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 11:17 AM)
Please don't question my fandom. Its an argument you will lose. I'm saying Griffey isn't very good anymore. If he's playing CF think Carl Everett in 2003 and Rob Mackowiak in 2006, maybe slightly better.

 

Oh please. Griffey may not have the range anymore, but he'll get good reads and breaks on balls. Crazy Carl and Mack were just clueless out there. Griffey's played a little CF before.

Yea..I was late to work b/c I was really confused I thought I may still be asleep...

Masset and Richar, Reds pay Griffey's salary

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 05:07 PM)
please dont, we better be getting like 3 players back with him and 1 of them better be better then Owings

 

Owings is going to AAA for a reason, Dbacks should just tell him to become a 1B

 

 

Owings would hit better than Paulie

For accuracy, it appears the Reds pay 1/2 of Griffey's remaining salary for this year and his buyout, not his full salary.

Kevin Garnett can play CF?

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 10:28 AM)
I have 1000 on. I can't stand the Score, and I'm going to wait to see other conformation before believing Jesse Rogers.

 

They're both garbage

I hope the Sox DL Konerko then, as him sitting on the bench is a waste of a roster spot.

I'm too lazy to type that though.

just a little..

 

and yes the sox split the contract with the reds, i feel bad for balta having to keep saying it

same, cant even think about putting on 670 if the sox arent on

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 11:24 AM)

The Score, a George Offman update that said team sources said Griffey will start in CF regularly.

So this was asked before, but given that it's only noon-ish what are the odds Griffey plays tonight?

Duscherer and Street for Swisher and someone else maybe.

 

Street is crap.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 07:56 AM)
I think I've got this figured out...

 

Swisher's headed back to Oakland in a deal involving Duchscherer, whom KW has been after for a couple of weeks.

I could see a deal centered around Swisher involving Duch and Street (obviously the Sox would give up more than just Swisher).

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 11:31 AM)

Yeah, 670's only had Steve Stone on for the majority of the morning (including right now).

 

That guy doesn't know ANYTHING compared to Mark Silverman.

 

Please tell me I don't need green...
